Description

May peace be with you,

In the first part of a special series of programmes, we invite you and your friends to join us at 7.30pm on Thursday 27 July, 2017 for a screening of an exceptionally moving 2017 Ahlulbayt TV documentary, ‘Syria: My return’.

The eye-opening documentary follows Sister Dr Rebecca Masterton who returns to Syria to visit the areas of Sayyidah Ruqayya and Sayyidah Zainab. Whilst there, she discovers the miraculous events which took place to protect our holy shrines from the effects of the war, which has destroyed nearly everything else in its path.

We are delighted to inform you, Dr Rebecca Masterton will be in attendance to talk about her experience, and to answer your questions after the screening.

This event is open to all.

Syria: My Return

Dr Rebecca Masterton travelled to Syria with Ahlulbayt TV. Her intention was to document the effects of war on the areas of Sayyidah Ruqayya and Sayyidah Zainab.

As they come to the door step of Sayyidah Ruqayya and crossed the threshold, there was an overwhelming sense of heart-warming serenity and peace that only the family of the Ahlulbayt could be responsible for. As if they provide a safe bubble in a world of turmoil, a feeling Rebecca describes as coming home. The shrine was exactly the same as it was before the war, a clear sign to all those who doubt, the remembrance of the Ahlulbayt will forever stay strong and pertinent.
